That's it. I am gonna do this. The brush made prep look easy, the spray gun looks fool proof and I cannot find one bad review of Al's (Scorpion)

I will do the bed from the parts truck on saw horses and if all goes well, the cab and fenders on the truck before I install the bed.

I wonder if the door jambs would be too tight of a place for it? The last video seems to show it pretty thin and level on the sides of the bed when he first starts to spray.

Now.....keep it white or go desert tan like I was thinking...... (tan is the only military looking color that won't clash with the blue interior or it would be olive drab)


Thank you Brad and ewalt, I had no idea these products existed. I could do my trailer with it too.

 

Did you use the vinyl flattener additive? The website says it makes it harder and more durable as well as makes it less reflective.

Again, thanks. This seems perfect.

Al's Liner Vinyl Flattener boosts the durability of your liner while delivering a custom semi-gloss or matte finish that can be difficult to achieve with traditional protective coatings. It's perfect for applications that require a full strength, non-reflective coating, and has been widely used by our Kustom Kulture customers looking for that matte finish for under coatings and chassis parts. The biggest advantage of our Vinyl Flattener additive is its ability to increase the hardness of our bed liner. The natural urethane/acrylic combination offers a more rubberized coating which provides extreme non-skid properties but is pliable if applied with enough thickness. The natural material in every Al's Liner Kit offers a Shore Hardness of 82 Points Type A, giving it a hardness that exceeds an automotive tire tread by about 20 points. With a full batch of Vinyl Flattener (1 quart per gallon of Al's), you will see an increase to a 92 Point Type A Shore Hardness, which delivers maximum protection against nicks, dents, scratches or any other accident that might damage your vehicle's perfect finish. With the Al's Liner Vinyl Flattener Additive, the DIY Truck Bed Liner Kit can duplicate the appearance and hardness of polyurea bed liners on the market without the trouble or severe price of an in-shop job. If you want maximum protection in a tailor-made finish that you can apply at home, Al's Liner Vinyl Flattener Additive has you covered.

 

Keep it white.

 

I only have one complaint. Its porous texture makes it hard to clean. And I tuned up the air to make it a more 36grit like sandpaper texture. But any bed liner will do the same thing. At least I didn't spend and arm and a leg to have it done.

With that being said... When I repaint my 04 Ranger this summer, the bumpers, flares and rockers will all be done in color matching DSG(mostly for stone chips)

Desert Tan

 

The dually fenders on my '04 rattled so I had them Line-X'ed from the body line down in Premium White. I've very happy with the way it came out.
